We met at the corner of Jackson Blvd. and Dearborn St. in the Loop Saturday night at seven. Aside from a film crew making a commercial across the street, there wasn’t much going on. There were no pink-haired, pierced-lipped protesters waiting to confront this gathering of woman-harassing, racist shitlords. After a few minutes, Chicago Joe gathered us up and took us to the venue, a nearby bar with pictures of naked ladies on the wall.

There wasn’t much to say about the meetup itself: we hung out, had a few drinks (or in Snowplow’s case, a lot of drinks) and had fun. Highlights included meeting two Breitbart employees, including one of Milo Yiannopoulos’ researchers, as well as watching Mina get into an argument about cultural Marxism with Warsie. Unfortunately, I had to leave the meetup relatively early as I had to go to a friend’s birthday party up in Wrigleyville.

Chicago Joe told me that people are interested in him holding more meetups, so if you live in the Chicago area and missed out on the fun, feel free to follow him on Twitter. And if there’s a GamerGate meetup happening in your area, you’ll definitely want to check it out.
